Carboniferous Onychophora from Montceau‐les‐Mines, France, and onychophoran terrestrialization
(John Wiley and Sons Inc., 2016)Abstract The geological age of the onychophoran crown‐group, and when the group came onto land, have been sources of debate. Although stem‐group Onychophora have been identified from as early as the Cambrian, the sparse ... -
Carbon–Fluorine Bond Formation
(Current Drugs Ltd., 2008)We present a selection of carbon–fluorine bond formations that have been developed in the recent past. An overview of the most common fluorination reagents is followed by fluorination reactions organized by reactivity. We ... -
Carbon–Fluorine Reductive Elimination from a High–Valent Palladium Fluoride
(American Chemical Society, 2008)We have observed two high-valent arylpalladiumfluoride complexes that afford carbon−fluorine bond formation upon thermolysis. -
Carboxylic acids in clouds at a high-elevation forested site in central Virginia
(Wiley-Blackwell, 1995)During September 1990 we sampled coarse (>18-μm diameter) and fine (18- to 5.5-μm diameter) droplets and liquid-water content (LWC) in cloud from a tower on a forested ridge top in Shenandoah National Park, Virginia. ... -
Carboxylic acids in the rural continental atmosphere over the eastern United States during the Shenandoah Cloud and Photochemistry Experiment
(Wiley-Blackwell, 1995)The Shenandoah Cloud and Photochemistry Experiment (SCAPE) was conducted during September 1990 in the rural continental atmosphere at a mountain top site (1014 m) in Shenandoah National Park, Virginia. We report here the ... -
Cardiac Catheter Brace for Minimally Invasive Surgery
(2015-07-10)Cardiac disease is common and many cases require invasive surgical intervention. Most cardiac surgeries, for example, require stopping the patient’s heart. A percutaneous, beating heart, catheter-based system has been ... -
Cardiac Stem Cell Therapy and the Promise of Heart Regeneration
(Elsevier BV, 2013)Stem cell therapy for cardiac disease is an exciting but highly controversial research area. Strategies such as cell transplantation and reprogramming have demonstrated both intriguing and sobering results. Yet as clinical ... -
Cardinality Restricted Boltzmann Machines
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology Press, 2012)The Restricted Boltzmann Machine (RBM) is a popular density model that is also good for extracting features. A main source of tractability in RBM models is that, given an input, the posterior distribution over hidden ... -
Cardiovascular and Affective Recovery from Anticipatory Threat
(Elsevier, 2010)Anticipating a stressor elicits robust cardiovascular and affective responses. Despite the possibility that recovery from these responses may have implications for physical and mental well-being, little research has examined ... -
A Care for the Claims of Theory
(New University of Lisbon, 2010) -
"Care of the Afflicted Flock": Pastoral Counseling, Psychiatry, and Disorderly Sexual Subjects
(2015-09-20)While scholars have argued that modern medical authority over sexuality stands in some relation to earlier religious discourse, modern religion and its new relationship to medicine are absent from these narratives. This ... -
Care Work in the Woodwork: Medicaid Home Care and Family Caregivers’ Health
(2021-09-16)Family caregivers provide the majority of eldercare in the United States, yet little is known about how eldercare policy affects their health. For several decades, research has shown that family caregivers experience ... -
The Careers of the Blind in Tokugawa Japan, 1603-1868
(2015-05-14)The blind deviate from bodily ideals and how we make sense of this difference matters. My dissertation examines the blind in Tokugawa Japan (1603–1868) to offer a contrasting perspective on disability from a non-Western ... -
A Careful Look at Binding Site Reorganization in the even-skipped Enhancers of Drosophila and Sepsids
(Public Library of Science, 2008) -
Caregiving as Moral Experience

Carotid bifurcation calcium and correlation with percent stenosis of the internal carotid artery on CT angiography
(Springer Science + Business Media, 2005)The aim of this paper was to determine the correlation between calcium burden (expressed as a volume) and extent of stenosis of the origin of the internal carotid artery (ICA) by CT angiography (CTA). Previous studies have ... -
Carrier Dynamics and Absorption Properties of Gold-Hyperdoped Germanium: Insight Into Tailoring Defect Energetics
(American Physical Society (APS), 2021-06-23)Hyperdoping germanium with gold is a potential method to produce room-temperature short-wavelength-infrared radiation (SWIR; 1.4–3.0 μm) photodetection. We investigate the charge carrier dynamics, light absorption, and ... -
The Cartographic Steppe: Mapping Environment and Ethnicity in Japan's Imperial Borderlands
(2016-09-09)This dissertation traces one of the origins of the autonomous region system in the People’s Republic of China to the Japanese imperial project by focusing on Inner Mongolia in the 1930s. Here, Japanese technocrats demarcated ... -
Carving Out the Space of Conformal Field Theories
(2012-12-19)We study the constraints of conformal symmetry and unitarity in Conformal Field Theories (CFTs). Crossing symmetry of four-point functions implies universal bounds on operator dimensions and three-point function coefficients. ...
